After the debacle of Mera Naam Joker, Raj Kapoor more or less switched over to a greater quotient of sex and sleaze in his films. His films started concentrating on over sexuality with films like Satyam Shivam Sundaram and Ram Teri Ganga Maili, which marked a major deviation in the way the lead women in his films were portrayed.

However he next produced Bobby (1973), a launch pad for his second son, Rishi Kapoor, and Dimple Kapadia, who became a rage soon after its release. Bobby, a love story that that took the younger generation by storm, was treated very differently. The success of the film not only bailed out the RK Studio's from the financial crunch but also induced the filmmaker to try new subjects, and perhaps intersperse it with more sex to earn profits!

Bobby is still considered as one of the best teeny-bopper love stories and newer films still have to match up to its youthful vibrancy.

Then came Satyam Shivam Sundaram (1978), where he revisited the story of Aag and once again tried to prove that inner beauty is more important than the physical - but the theme of the story got lost in the sensuous curves of Zeenat Aman. It turned out to be one of the sexiest films of the era.

Ram Teri Ganga Maili (1985), most remembered for starlet Mandakini's waterfall scene, proved to be his last film.
